39

I signed up on Couchsurfing last month. Awesome for backpackers on budget, I heard.

There was a new message in my inbox. She said hi, telling me that she just arrived in York and had a couple of free days before the term begins. She asked if I fancy some tea together. "Yes, why not?" and I offered to discover the city with her.

The day has come.

"I'll be wearing a green scarf!"

"I'll be wearing a yellow beanie!"

Easy identification,

She was fun, lively, optimistic, bright, independent, approachable, everything I wish I was.
